Vinyl Acetate Monomer
Vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) is the ester of acetic acid and vinyl alcohol, used primarily in the production of polyvinyl acetate for adhesives, paints, and coatings. It falls under HTS 2915.39.90.00 as an 'other' ester of acetic acid, being a saturated acyclic monocarboxylic acid derivative not specifically enumerated elsewhere in the subheading. This classification applies to its chemical structure as a simple acetate ester.
Isopropyl Acetate
Isopropyl acetate is the ester formed from acetic acid and isopropanol, widely used as a solvent in coatings, inks, and pharmaceuticals. Classified under HTS 2915.39.90.00 as an 'other' acetic acid ester, it qualifies due to its saturated acyclic structure and lack of specific enumeration in prior subheadings. This covers industrial-grade solvents not listed as vinyl or allyl acetates.
n-Butyl Acetate
n-Butyl acetate, ester of acetic acid and n-butanol, serves as a key solvent in lacquers, nail polish removers, and flavorings. It is classified in HTS 2915.39.90.00 as an unsaturated 'other' ester of acetic acid, fitting the chapter's scope for acyclic monocarboxylic derivatives. Industrial volumes distinguish it from aromatic or specifically named esters.
Ethyl Acetate (Technical Grade)
Technical grade ethyl acetate, ester of acetic acid and ethanol, is used in glues, inks, and extractions despite chapter note on ethyl esters following acids. It falls under HTS 2915.39.90.00 as 'other' due to its general use and lack of specific prior classification. Purity typically 99%+ distinguishes it for chemical trade.
Methyl Acetate
Methyl acetate, the simplest acetic acid ester with methanol, acts as an eco-friendly solvent in paints and perfumes. HTS 2915.39.90.00 covers it as 'other' saturated acyclic ester, aligning with chapter notes allowing methanol-derived esters absent specific exclusions. Its volatility suits low-VOC applications.
sec-Butyl Acetate
sec-Butyl acetate is a branched-chain ester of acetic acid used in solvent blends for automotive coatings. Classified under HTS 2915.39.90.00 as 'other' ester, its saturated acyclic nature fits perfectly without matching enumerated types. Provides faster evaporation than n-butyl analog.
